EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a superbly preserved specimen of the Cretaceous sponge Ventriculites. The image, taken against a sleek black background, reveals the intricate details of this ancient invertebrate. The sponge, broken open to reveal its interior, displays the characteristic ventricles, or hollow chambers, that give this species its name. The root-like base, a remnant of the attachment structure, adds to the intrigue of this prehistoric organism. Ventriculites is a member of the Phanerozoic class Porifera, which includes modern sponges and their extinct relatives. This sponge thrived during the Mesozoic Era, specifically during the Cretaceous Period, around 100 to 66 million years ago. The discovery and study of such fossils provide valuable insights into the biosphere of the past and help us understand the evolutionary history of the animal kingdom. The specimen in this photograph, expertly captured by Paul Taylor and David Lewis, offers a glimpse into the rich diversity of life that once inhabited our planet. The meticulous studio shot highlights the beauty and complexity of this ancient organism, reminding us of the fascinating world that lies hidden beneath the surface of the Earth.
